We need a consultant in the passing game. Roman's strategy is to send everyone deep all day. All the good passing attacks in the league utilize quick-strike plays. Slants, crossing routes, picks, bunch formations... That's what we need.

We've done all that at some point this season. Not many bunches lately, or picks, but plenty slants and out routes. Those are quick strike plays.

I think we need to consider drafting a center, guard, scatback, and 6'0 speedy route runner.

A scatback would help, but why not LMJ? We're not a screen team. Kaepernick had success last week getting the ball out quickly. When he struggles, pay attention to the routes the WRs are running. Too often they all go deep/verticals.

Looking over the lists of prospects on various sites it seems they could really be in the right place for the right position. The alternative is trading up in the first for a WR/DB in the top 20 and/or trading up in the second for their WR depending on a run in that area. Fun to think of reloading with so many picks! Of course, who knows how many underclassmen will enter the draft and change these lists...and it's a bit early to take the lists seriously...but I'm already getting excited for this draft!

I had been screaming for a NT and FB the last few drafts, but I think Dorsey and Williams have it handled, with TJE and Dial able to play there too.. Im thinking draft a C-G, get a swing tackle in FA//trade (J. Martin??). I'd then draft a WR/KR/PR type speed WR (Boldin, Crabbtree, Baldwin, and Rook should work here, we would need a 5th guy who is a playmaker and a return guy (LMJ makes me nervous, Ginn was the best we ever had at the position). Draft a CB and SS. (Reid seems too fragile to play SS, so leave him back deep). NO MORE RB'S PLEEEEEEZ!!
SO:
C/G- Looney hasn't done s**te since he came here. Quality depth needed here.
CB- Cully, Brock, can step in at CB, Wright can help too. Draft a CB high here to complete the position long term fix.
SS- Easy to get a starter type in 3rd rd., sit behind Whitner 1 yr. then bam!
WR- Explosive guy who can also KR/PR/ST.

Wouldn't be to mad if this happened, good draft that's highly possible.
